Mak A Laang Erm

Through our work, Gaada invites people in Shetland to mak a laang erm and help themselves to whatever support is needed to nourish their creative landscape. This sentiment provides the namesake of the exhibition you will find inside the workshop, showcasing the work of [20+] artists who have collaborated with Gaada during the past year.

The exhibiting artists are:

Rafferty, Helen Tulloch, Shannon Leslie, Brian Sinclair, Daniel Clark, Andy Anderson, Rhys Mouat, Mari Johnson, Jono Sandilands, Struan Haswell, Amy Gear, Cameron Morgan, Laura Hughes, Stuart Thomson, Elouise Spooner, Belladonna Paloma, Rosalie Schweiker, Miriam Sentler (and Brigdi Collaborators), Shetland Who Cares Crew.

There will also be the latest published zines from the Safeland series from Julie Dennison and Jen Hadfield.
